Baptist Memorial Hospital-Memphis (1912–2000)

In 1980, Joseph Powell succeeded Frank Groner as the CEO and administrator,[3] and Baptist began expanding its branches of hospitals across the mid-southern United States.

This fire also slightly damaged the Madison East tower, breaking several windows and putting the entire hospital at risk.

With Russwood being a total loss, the baseball park was cleared, Baptist purchased the land and continued to grow.

After closing the hospital in 2000, Baptist donated the professional buildings to The University of Tennessee Health Science Center in 2002.

After decades of expansion, Baptist Memorial Healthcare had spread to multiple towns across the mid-southern United States.

On November 17, 2000, the hospital closed and transferred its last 12 patients to other facilities, ending its 88 years of continual service.

After closing the campus, Baptist donated the hospital facilities to Memphis Bioworks Foundation in 2002.

Later, the land was donated to the University of Tennessee Health Science Center after Memphis Bioworks ceased operations.
